THE STORY OF PRIYAVRATA
'भयं प्रमत्तस्य वनेष्वपि स्यात्
यतस्स आस्ते सहषट्
जितेन्द्रियस्यात्मरते
गृहाश्रमः किन्
सरकार
SL
Then the self-born God Brahma spoke
to Priyavrata thus: "To the unwary,
there may be fear even in the forests; for
he is (surrounded) by his six enemies,
(Passion, Anger, Avarice, Delusion, Pride,
and Malice); and to that wise man who
has conquered his senses and has found
joy in his self, what harm can household
life do ? "
' त्वं त्वब्जनाभा
दुर्गाश्रितो निर्जितषट्सपत्नः ।
भुङ्क्ष्वेह भोगान्पुरुषातिदिष्टा-
न्विमुक्तसङ्गः प्रकृतिं भजस्व ॥
"And you have resorted to the strong-
hold of the lotus-feet of Hari and
conquered the six enemies. Abandoning
attachment, enjoy here the joys extended
to you by the Supreme Being and (thus)
realise your essential nature.
